Cowboy Poetry

Cowboy Poetry should reflect the spirit of the West , the struggles , emotions ,
freedom of the people  and love of land. Be it Australias Bush poets,
or any other country, that embraces the cowboy culture!!

at least 5 mp3 / or written
The poem needs to hold the attention; and be interesting. Some of that depends on the subject matter of the poem, but especially how the poem is phrased and delivered.
Consistent rhyme scheme and meter in the stanzas.
The recording must be of good quality, meaning that there are no breaks or fluctuations in the recording, no background noise or other extraneous noises.
Some poets add instrumentation, which is often a nice addition.
The poet’s voice should be clear, and words articulated and understandable.
There should be dramatic interpretation of the subject matter in the poem, not overly dramatic but what is appropriate for the story of the poem. This means good pacing or a good flow in the delivery of the poem, words appropriately emphasized, pronunciation is clear, and there is appropriate use of pauses.

For Radio Hosts:
We also need a bio and a picture in 300DPI and we need a Link to your Show and a logo.

We also need a bio and a picture in 300DPI and we need a Logo as well as a link to your web page and radio station.
